    And to be fair (which I hate doing with these monsters but which rational thought demands) it’s not unreasonable to start your research by forming a hypothesis before you’ve collected sufficient data to actually back it up. That’s the usual pattern. But that’s the start of research. You shouldn’t be making public policy based on that hypothesis yet.
